the river's natural habit of changing course and muddying boundaries. One side is Texas(US); the other, Mexico. The recent war among various gangs and drug cartels has made Juárez one of the world's most dangerous cities, while across the way, El Paso remains calm, even eerily prosperous. It consistently ranks as one of the safest cities in the United States. Giving birth in El Paso (US side) would deliver their children a precious advantage: it would make them Americans. Any child born at Arnold's birth center would possess American citizenship, courtesy of the 14th Amendment, and with it the ability to cross freely back and forth.

To reward him the king gave Beowulf armour of precious metals. At night Grendel's mother come for revenge at night, Beowulf defeats her as well with a magic sword. At the beginning of part II 50 years have passed
